Abstract
In 2008, a condition survey indicated that major structural improvements were necessary to extend the service life of the 50-year-old United Harvest grain import/export dock located on the Columbia River at the Port of Kalama in Kalama, Washington. Rather than repair the dock, the owner elected to replace it, modernize the dockside grain-handling equipment, and install two 150-foot [45.7 m] boom fixed-tower ship loaders to increase the ship loading rate from 1,200 metric tons per hour (mtph) [1,323 short tons per hour (stph)] to 3,200 mtph [3,527 stph]. To support the towers and resist the ship berthing and mooring loads, two new batter pile-supported concrete platforms were constructed. Because the riverbed at the site consisted of approximately 65 feet [20 m] of highly liquefiable sand over solid basalt, a micropile was installed inside each batter pile and pretensioned into the basalt to resist the high-tension loads on the piles. By setting the lock-off load equal to just greater than the maximum non-seismic tensile demand of each pile, the micropile force/displacement response exhibited a bilinear behavior under tensile loads. The tensile strain of the pile/micropile system increases when the non-seismic forces are overcome, and this behavior is used to reduce seismic forces on the platform. This paper focuses on the selection of the fixed-tower ship loaders, the design of the ship loader platforms, and the pile/micropile bilinear response and its incorporation into the design per the International Building Code (IBC).

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
